Surrounded by boys.....and Ms.B

Welcome to my blog. I've called it 'A House of Hawes' as I am completely surrounded by Hawes' people, a scary (albeit fun) thought at times. Even the dogs have that last name registered. We've decided to go the blog route instead of our website so we can keep things updated easier as the 'Will and Nate' story continues....what a story it's turning out to be!

But that's my apple......

Nate has no patience for me when I'm eating an apple that I won't share with him - this started a couple of months ago. So, Mommy's apple ends up becoming Natey Nate's apple......



Bath x 2

The boys are now big enough to go in the big bathtub which means both can have a bath at the same time..... Yay for me as this saves me a lot of time!! Besides, bathtime is SO much more fun when you can splash your brother and your parents at the same time :)



Cookies!

The boys love their cookies and these have definitely become part of the daily routine. I can now tell by a particular crankiness that I have neglected to honour 'cookie time'.

Who is this guy????

Will and Nate's first visit with Santa is in the history books. Nate was quite interested in Santa's outfit and beard - lots of things to grab on to. Will was a little bit concerned - he would look at Santa and whimper, then look at Daddy, then look at me, then repeat the whole thing. Overall, Dave and I were quite happy that the boys weren't traumatized by the whole Santa 'experience'.

Will plays peek-a-boo......

Will's favourite new trick is playing peek-a-boo. He doesn't quite have the whole thing down in that he will sometimes play peek-a-boo with a tiny book or baby sock, but he's working on improving his technique. In the meantime, you can see what he's working on.
